Expert Solution
Step 1

In this case, we have to discuss the elasticity of supply curve here. Supply curve is actually indicating the production of the producer. Now elasticity of supply curve represents the response of quantity supplied due to change in the market price in the economy. Here we see a diagram and we have to discuss the elasticity of this supply curve.
